Cracked and Chipped Teeth
Repairing damaged teeth to restore strength and confidence
How damage occurs and what to watch for
Understanding Cracked and Chipped Teeth
Teeth can chip or crack for many reasons, biting into something hard, grinding teeth at night, or gradual wear from acid erosion. Even minor damage can affect your comfort and oral health by leaving rough surfaces, exposing inner layers, or making the tooth more prone to decay. Signs to watch include:
- Sharp edges or roughness you can feel with your tongue
- Sensitivity to hot, cold, or pressure when chewing
- A visible crack that may extend into deeper layers of the tooth
- Pain or discomfort when biting or smiling
